New AIV Facility Reaches Construction Milestone

AIV, a global distributor of valves and actuators based in Houston, is on track to complete its 320,000-square-foot northwest Houston fabrication, warehouse and office campus by the end of 2018.

At recent a "topping out" event, the final beam was raised into place. Company officials announced as of August 31, the facility at 22806 Northwest Lake Drive is 65 percent complete.

"Construction is moving along very smoothly," Ryan Loving, president of AIV sister-company Gulf Coast Modification, said in an announcement. "All signs point to the commissioning of equipment to begin late December."
